I'm in this dream I'm picking at the seams On the couch we always used to sit on And i look up, I thought you were there, but you're gone You've gone away to some better place But don't you know you can't hide from mistakes Life's a tough game to play But hey, No one said life was fair You know I'll always care You'll always be in my head Keeping me lying awake in bed Thinking of you And all the things we used to do Are you scared like me? Of how alone you could be? You know you really have no reason to I'll always be here for you, no matter what you do I don't break my promises, How did we get like this? You say I'm like you're idol on a poster But don't look any closer Cause all you'll see is a small girl, With a big shield, hiding from the world I'm sorry i was a disappointment, but you had to see I'm less than what you expected me to be You'll always be special in my eyes With a special glow that shines I'm lying awake at night because i miss u I tried to forget you but i guess i forgot to Tell me this is a dream So I can wake up and live my own reality But I'm lying in my bed And you're circling in my head You're always with me in my dreams You're too pure of an angel for me But you'll always be my memory... |
I think this is a good expression of feelings. You convey to the reader just how you are feeling and explain why you feel that way. It gives the reader some good insight into why you feel the way you do and also allows them to relate to their own experiences. At some points in this, I got the idea that perhaps this person had died but then in others it didnt seem that way. So, I decided to interpret it as they have died to you in a way. They are out of your life and sometimes it is so painful that you have to try to tell yourself it is like they are dead. You dont see them anymore, you dont talk to them and the only way you can move on is to convince yourself that they are dead. I have had to do this once before in my life as I just had a really hard time trying to move past this one relationship. It did make it a little more bearable. Anyway, this is a good poem.

God Bless Ron Please if you get a chance Please take a look at some of my writes and let me know what you think Thank You Ron | Posted on 2006-09-11 00:00:00 | by Ronswords | [ Reply to This ] | |
